    Fast, urgent talking;

    How to use

    Use Lithium Carbonate as directed by your doctor.

    To avoid stomach upset, take Lithium Carbonate immediately after meals or with food or milk.
    While taking Lithium Carbonate, you should drink 10 to 12 glasses of water or fluid a day. To minimize the risk of harmful side effects, eat a balanced diet that includes some salt and lots of liquids. If you have been sweating a great deal or have had diarrhea, make sure you get extra liquids and salt.
